I haven't been here in ages, a thread about Tm's brought me back tonight and I figured I should prob introduce some of the newbies to the gang here.

First off, Miss Kita girl, she just turned 10 yesterday... time flies
Here's her annual birthday picture
She's still doing very well for an old girl, you wouldn't now her age by the way she acts when the mood strikes her.
The way she moves now when running she is moving like an old dog a bit as seen here.

But she's still a happy healthy girl.

also there is crazy Elmo, he's doing well. He learned how to swim this summer, well learned that his life jacket was going to help him stay above the water. We tried getting him swimming with out one but he just sinks and then gets unsure. Now that he has a PFD of his own he has even started dock diving at camp
This was his second week of diving

Here he is just chilling after one of our runs in the back

Here he is in wheel on a small training jog with "Lil Brindle" beside him and Lead dog Lemon up front

On to Lil Brindle,
She is a newbie here, from the local pound, I had pulled her as a 4 month old, she had been adopted out but turned out to be far too much energy for her owner so is now back.
She's a very pretty and spry little thing with amazing drives and nerves. I may get her into FR or something like that but a bit more time will be needed. We have started a lot of foundation work and she seems to have "it"

Now the sled training pic of Lemon is another newbie here. She is from a racing kennel who has decided to get out of racing. I needed a lead dog so voila, Lemon, a 7 year old Alaskan Husky/Pointer cross.
I don't have many pics of her yet, only video.

Here's a quick little video of our dryland training this week. Lemon in lead, Elmo and Karma in swing, and Marv and Tibby are in wheel. Here we are running around 12km/h we do 2 of these runs (3 k each run) a day. When it cools off more for the TM's we will be increasing the distance. Our speed usually is around 9kms/h on average.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjO_f...&feature=g-upl

the horses are doing well also.
Sir Viggo is growing into a really nice little Mini Clyde and has come a long way with his training as a 3 year old. He hacks out well alone, very quick learner and will be starting more indepth schooling this spring.

Old man Calvin is still with us, he's now pushing 30 and in all honesty is starting to fall apart but he is enjoying his retired life. He's a really hard keeper and keeping weight on him is the stuff night mares are made of. Excuse the ribbyness... we're still fighting the good fight for him.

I will stop now for tonight, I won't get into the many fancy chickens and ducks we have around here this year but will put a few pics of some of the cats possibly tomorrow.
